    Yeahhhhhh, finally I see the school that made me. East Kololo Primary School.
    Dr. Obote and Basilio Okello stayed just a stone throw away from the school.
    Sad the school is now run down and looks like a village school.
    It was among the best in the 1980s.
    Thank you.

    What a beautiful vlog-very nostalgic. It brought back so many memories. The place that said "no photography" was a minister's residence. The American Ambassador's residence is in upper Kololo, right near Summit View. East Kololo Primary School is a government school from P1 to P7. Obote lived not far away. Most of their land has been encroached upon and stolen. The Russian embassy used to be the embassy of the USSR, and at the end of Baskerville was our residence. Thank you so much

    Prince Charles Drive was renamed “25 January Avenue “ by Idi Amin when he took over power from Milton Obote in 1971. Amin has a private residence on the Avenue which he calls “Command Post” near the airstrip.

    Up to now the KCCA has failed to get a permanent solution for street kids.
    Apparently majority if not all kids and adult people begging on the street are from one region karamoja.
    I hear there are individuals who felly them on buses , drop them on streets to beg and those individuals get money from them. It's like a business.
    There are many universal education schools I don't know why parents deny these kids education, now as they grow up they are going to be criminals

    Kololo, which is supposed to be the Beverly Hills of Kampala, is sooo dirty, a personal opinion though. It was cleaner 43 years ago during the time of Idi Amin. Expelled Asian Indians called Kololo Hill home. I have been away 40+ years & at one time lived on acacia avenue as a young boy, but I am sorry to say that it seems everything has changed for the worst. Check out Kigali neighborhoods, for comparison purposes, then you will probably know what I mean. The people who are supposed to keep Kololo clean & up to standard should all be fired. They are doing a lousy job, if at all they work.

    Prince Charles' drive should be named Cassava Maze Drive. The black man can not have his name on a drive in England. North Korea shouldn't be in Uganda. Nobody wants to go there. No African shouldn't require a visa to go to another African country. That's insulting.
